A science fair project is an activity that integrates almost every skill students have been taught. Students need learn how to apply their existing abilities to new
areas, as well as learn many new skills. A science fair project often involves reading, logical thinking, writing, grammar and spelling, math,
statistics and data analysis, computer science, and graphic arts, as
well as scientific methodology. Participating in science fair projects helps develop a feeling
of confidence and competence among students, and fosters a spirit of
scientific inquiry. Projects usually involve scientific questions that the student is
interested in, and a specific topic they have chosen for themselves.
Participants must research their question, learn and apply the
scientific method to create a valid experiment, and think about the
meaning of their results. Science fairs are also a means for
students to demonstrate motivation, self-learning, critical thinking,
ethics and other important skills and traits.
